Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the purpose of using a standard solution in titration?
  • Step 1: Understand what a titration is. It is a method used to determine the concentration of a substance in a solution.
  • Step 2: Know what a standard solution is. It is a solution with a known concentration of a substance.
  • Step 3: Realize that in titration, we add the standard solution to the solution we want to test (the analyte).
  • Step 4: The purpose of using the standard solution is to help us measure how much of it we need to add to react completely with the analyte.
  • Step 5: By knowing the amount of standard solution used and its concentration, we can calculate the concentration of the analyte.
